Hello Friend,

    Well I really blew it yesterday.

Don't know what I was thinking but somehow I got Victoria Day and Canada Day all mixed up.

      Many of you were kind enough to remind me of that also.

Yes, Canada day will come soon enough.

And hopefully I'll get it right!

I've talked about computerized mounts recently from the small to the mid sized but what about the
heavy duty?

The Mother of all mounts, perhaps?

That's simple enough.

The Skywatcher EQ8 high precision EQ mount fits the bill quite nicely.

In fact, it can carry a payload of 50 kilograms!

You can read more about it, plus a review from esteemed Astroimager and amateur astronomer
Michael Watson, who is also a longtime RASC member.

Clear Skies,
